When I received this email from Panyl, I immediately emailed them back to say I’d love to do a giveaway. Here’s how it works!

PANYL is the revolutionary design material that puts all the creative possibilities of custom furniture finishes directly in your hands. Literally.

See this normally white FRAMSTA Entertainment unit from IKEA? Well here’s what it could be:

Thanks to PANYL, vinyl enthusiasm is no longer just for audiophiles. Due to great strides in vinyl manufacturing, PANYL’s inexpensive, self-adhesive, pre-cut pieces are as aesthetically stunning as they are easy to order and apply. Matched to the exact dimensions of IKEA products, PANYL lets you upgrade inexpensive “flat-pack” furniture into customized, designer bling.

How easy is it? If you’ve ever assembled a piece of IKEA furniture, you’re vastly overqualified. If you can fold a paper airplane or wrap a present, you can install PANYL.

Along with simple installation instructions that take advantage of PANYL’s natural resistance to air bubbles and creasing, sample “practice panyls” come with every order.

So two lucky readers will each win a gift certificate for $100, so you can add some colour to your space ASAP!

Which colour is your favourite? Post a comment below and I will announce the winner this Saturday, July 7, 2012!

    I love Panyl – such an amazing way to customize! I’d go with Lemondrop or Teal to add to my Expedit bookcases in my office!!

  2. Susan@Susan Silverman Designs says:

    OMG……What a brilliant idea!! Is it a Canadian company and if not, do they ship to Canada?

  3. Marsha Perri says:

    Love this idea! Perfect way to customize. Love the Thunder.

  4. I love Sunburst or Brushed Aluminum. Thanks for the opportunity.

  5. Marjorie says:

    I would use the woodgrain teak or rosewood. I’m just looking to do an ikea “hack” by taking a simple gloss white cabinet and adding mid-century tapered legs. So the wood on the doors would top it off!

  6. Jennifer says:

    I love the tangerine color!

  7. Louise says:

    I’m thinking sunburst. But I might have to give you a call to consult!
    By the way, reno is in full source and so far I’m loving all the decisions we made together!

  8. Loving the teal – great idea!

  9. Heather says:

    I love the turquoise in the first image! As a renter that can’t paint, this is a great way to add color!

  10. Scott says:

    I’ve been wanting to update some Ikea items forever!

  11. Claudia says:

    The tangerine color is gorgeous. What a great product.!

  12. Jennie says:

    I love lemon drop and robin’s egg!

  32. Beth says:

    Love the product – and all the colors! My eyes want to make the tangerine to yellow cabinets dark to light like a paint strip. If I had to choose – turquoise. Wiat, tangerine. No, the soft yellow! All.

    I love the robin’s egg blue, almost the same colour as the background on your blog! What a great idea;
    thanks for bringing it to my attention…

  37. alisa says:

    I could use the slate on shelves for my kitchen. Great product.

  38. jackie says:

    I went on their website and saw bubblegum, which appealed to my “claim this space as my own” sensibility. But their wood finishes are also pretty sweet (did I just say that?).

  39. Barbara says:

    I love the Bubble Gum with the Clay (if the colors are true).
    Awesome product!!!

    Pick me! Pick me!

  40. Vicki Johnson says:

    Love the brushed aluminum. It says industrial chic.

  41. toni says:

    Wow – great idea and great colors!!
    I’d love to combine Robin’s egg and pewter.
    Ash linen would look great in my kitchen!!

  42. Cindy W says:

    I’m liking the teal and pewter. Thanks for introducing us to this great product!

  43. Mary Lou Killebrew says:

    Can this be applied to the front of dresser drawers?

    • Maria Killam says:

      Yes I think as long as it’s flat. They now sell a product you can cut to size. Maria

  44. Catie says:

    WOW
    Great concept – I love it
    Thanks for introducing us to this totalllllly amazing
    Cheers
    Catie

  46. Kimberly says:

    Great idea/product. Thunder or a purple/grey would be my favorite color choices. Thanks Maria for introducing me to this product.

  47. Amy says:

    So cool.. What a amazing product.. I love the robins egg… I won a cake on the cake walk in 3rd grade so i think due … Crossing my fingers!

  48. Gretchen says:

    I love the tangerine!

  49. these are fabulous. Win or not I am going to order these..perfect for my Ikea cabinet in my office..BTW I like Malibu and Robin’s egg.

  50. Peg says:

    Now I have a solution other than MOVING! We rent and there seemed to be no other option. The brushed aluminum will brighten and update this dreary rental kitchen for sure.

  51. Janice says:

    Love the tangerine color although they are all fabulous 🙂

  52. Anne Lubner says:

    What a great idea, thanks for sharing this! A great range of colours to pick from too. My fave is Malibu!

  53. Cara Dray says:

    I’d love to have sunburst colored cabinets in my kitchen! it’d go great with the bright green shelves I’m making! Thanks for more great ideas 🙂

  54. ellen Rush says:

    turquoise – not too clean though, thanks Maria!

  55. jan v says:

    This is very interesting….I love both the tangerine and the plum. Of course, violet and orange is a favorite combo for me so no surprise.

  56. Erica says:

    Oo I like Forest on the Ekby shelves

  57. Stacy says:

    I like Turquoise and Gray!

  58. Nancy says:

    What a great idea. I like the elm in the wood grains with perhaps the brushed aluminum.
    Can you get samples swatches!

  59. Kate says:

    I would go with bright tangerine so warm and invititing!

  60. Shawna says:

    Not certain yet what colour. Slate, teal, robin’s egg? Have yellow lack side tables and the top of the one is damaged, so I’d cover the top.

  61. sherry says:

    Very cool. From the bedroom to the dorm room…great idea to update for the kids furniture as they get ready to move out. Hard to settle on one color…maybe I would let them pick. 🙂

  62. Karen says:

    Love Woodblock! Robins Egg or Lemon Drop are fun also.

  63. Kelly says:

    These are soooo cool. I wish they made them for other furniture too (like non-IKEA cabinet doors). I like the Sunburst the best 🙂

  64. Janet says:

    Love the slate and lilac. This would really give a new look to my old Ikea units in my sewing room.

  65. Dilyara says:

    Thunder & robin’s egg combo looks trendy.

    For me & my family tangerine & lemon drop probably would work the best 🙂

  66. Hilary says:

    My fave would be Teak. Pick me!

    I searched for panyl videos and found one where they made a stereo out of an expedit and an ipad – hularious/cute:

    Expedit iTunes Ikea Hack (Vimeo).

  67. Lori says:

    So many great choices! What a great idea for a quick transformation!

  68. Agnes says:

    Fantastic ~ count me in!

    I love the plum!

    Color is so refreshing. I love the shades of red and orange!

  71. Kristine says:

    What an amazing product!! I love the lemondrop and the robin’s egg. I can think of so many instances where this would come in handy!! Very cool.

  72. sta27 says:

    The turquoise is pretty great.

  73. Margaret Yani says:

    Oh my-this is great! I could actually rescue my ugly laminate cabinets. I LOVE thunder and teal! Thanks for the giveaway. Good luck to all!
